Best of My Archives

I've been Project365ing since 2009 and my photography has been slowly improving. I don't want to share Everything from way back when, but I still love many of the photos. Here are some of the best of my photos from 2010 through 2012.

Jumping Silhouettes

Day 242 This week in Natural Light 101 we are practicing backlighting and silhouettes. This is not an ideal location for a silhouette because I could not get far enough away from the trees. Those trees behind them are across the meadow from them, and they are on the top of a slope. I'm lying on the grass halfway down the slope. I tried just having them dance and got some interesting effects but only half their bodies show, so finally for this one I told them I'd count to three for them to jump all at once. I love how the two in the middle have their fingers spread, and the wild hair.
